I'm having a problem that has been described in http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2796525&SiteID=17 due to encrypted hard disks on laptops (Safeguard Easy), the task sequence fails if it can't read hard disk (just wondering why, at that point it should just wipe and repartition it).
There is some kind of solution described in mentioned thread to use diskpart after failed task sequence, but that requires manual steps. I should rollout newer OS build (Windows XP image) for few hundred workstations, if which maybe one hundred has been encrypted with SGEasy. I doubt decrypting hard disks before rollout is hardly an option, that would take ages, and the laptops should be usable all the time.
If anyone has any idea how to automate this, please share it. There is also a problem: User settings should be migrated via state migration. If we have to restart the failed task sequence, what happens to captured user state, that has been already stored on server. If I use diskpart to clean the disk, they can't be re-read.
